Raving Dove serves as an online literary journal dedicated to sharing thought-provoking writing, photography, and art from around the world that opposes the use of violence as conflict resolution, and embraces the intrinsic themes of peace and human rights. Raving Dove is published online three times each year. It enriches the reader by way of exceptional, meaningful literature and art, and communicates the artistic, humanitarian insights of the contributing writers, photographers, and artists through worldwide visibility on the Internet.
Your Financial Support Is Invaluable
With funds for advertising and publicity, we will be able to share this journal's important messages with a larger audience. With monies to pay our contributors, the high quality of our submissions will remain constant. With support for our annual nonfiction essay contest, our mission will be recognized in wider circles. We are a very small, relatively new nonprofit, and your help is vital. A full report on Raving Dove can be found here: Guidestar/Network for Good.
We realize that you have many choices for your charitable donations. Because Raving Dove is an online venture, our operating expenditures are minimal and you can rest assured that your money will go towards mission commitment.
